If you didn't already know, Chuck is about your common, everyday computer geek who gets pretty much all of the information that the US Intelligence community has downloaded directly into his brain. Over the course of the series, with the help of his hot CIA handler and his grouchy NSA handler, he becomes a spy, as opposed to the more disposable, and less free, asset.

Chuck Season Four Episode Five Synopsis and Commentary

This episode of Chuck, titled “Chuck vs. the Couch Lock" (original air date: October 18, 2010) opens in Iran in 1999 with Casey and the "A" team breaking into a secret Iranian gold vault, to lock down the gold so no one can get to it (there are lots of explosives involved.) The team decides that they would rather be rich, and turn on Casey, who is forced to "handle" them (which he does without breathing hard.) He activates the explosives (with a palm scanner) so that if anyone else tries to open the vault they get reduced to their component atoms, and drags his team back to be court-martialed.

Cut to the Buy More (in the now). Jeff and Lester are obliviously inviting Casey to come join them for some "Magic the Gathering" action. (Somehow, Casey doesn't kill them.) While that is going on, Alex surprises Morgan (the 9th most annoying sidekick in the history), which he thinks is great, but wants some PDA, which he smoothly (wait... it's Morgan!) avoids, since Casey doesn't know about them yet, and well, he's afraid of Casey... very, very afraid.
